In password fields drag and drop text is enabled by default. When dragging text, password shows in sample picture.
This must be disabled by additional check in

void EditField::LeftDrag(Point p, dword flags)
{
+	if(password) return;

Also EditField::GetCursor() can be rewritten for proper selection:

int  EditField::GetCursor(int posx)
{
	posx -= 2;
	if(posx <= 0) return 0;

	FontInfo fi = font.Info();
	int count = text.GetLength();
	if(password)
		return min((posx + fi['*'] / 2) / fi['*'], count);

	int x = 0;
	const wchar *s = text;
	int i = 0;
	while(i < count)
	{
		int witdh = fi[*s];
		if(posx < x + witdh / 2)
			break;
		x += witdh;
		s++; i++;
	}
	return i;
}

Some methods (GetTextCx(), Paints()) have argument 'password'. For what?
